” I'll do what I have to . ”
words spoken with the bare minimum of any hesitation — ,
over the time spent away from one another , Lily had found time to think , reflect , and decide on future terms the actions she has to pertain in order to not only keep Jack safe , but

herself not to be blinded by what she thought was Jack's own .
she smiled at him ; albeit knowing he can't return the favor , she did . to lighten the mood as well .
” how long has Amica been gone though ? I know you have a lot of faith in her but , it kinda worries

lips thinned out in a line , his words causing that energy she had before to settle ; the topic growing dim for her to stop that playfulness .
well ,,
she knew how this would go south in an instance —
the fact that Jack was here to begin with already meant so .

“ that — id have to go back to Termina for it . ”
such strong things ;
it caused a risk just using them .
” if you need me to , I'll do it ,
but . . . ”
Violet hues glanced down ;
it was conflicting , but long ago she already made her mind .

there was that possibility .
but he hasn't yet .
that thought alone was enough for her to keep faith in his control .
herself even ,
she could handle what came at her . no longer was she the child that Jack perhaps seems to still see .
a damsel in distress , gods how

hated such a title . and it was one she refused to become .

whatever nonsensical words he was spewing irritated her ; causing deep furrowed brows to knit together as teeth sunk into her lower lip .
a sigh was taken ;
he was a complete fool .

I've been on a stupid wild goose chase — only for it to bring me back here . 😔
BUT IM SO GLAD YOU'RE STILL AROUND !
why ;
was he always so damn awkward .
copies were never able to achieve that balanced devoid of emotion — usually either too dead , or too alive ,,
